How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Sink repair at your home in The Moor
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s a crazed, tired basin and chips on the rim or front edge, we can usually put it right, on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The Moor: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
When to call us in The Moor
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- An antique basin with chips
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips around the rim
- A crazed, tired basin
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- How your room will be protected
- How to look after the finish
- What prep work is covered
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
